I would use this book in a classroom by having students evaluate different perspectives they saw represented in the text.
pickEd Young‘s Seven Blind Mice is a vibrant retelling of the classic folktale The Blind Men and the Elephant. Seven mice each explore part of a strange object and draw different conclusions, until the seventh discovers it is an elephant. With bold collage art and a clear moral about perspective and truth, the book works as a fable—using animals and story to teach a timeless lesson.
pickThis book was so good. The cover drew me in (its creepy yet intriguing, isnt it?). My expectations were completely blown over. This book was gripping and clever. Not one moment that I wanted to rush. It was murder mystery and one of the best I have read.
